what year is it?

since this was our first year living in the central time zone
we didn't know quite what to do...
do we watch the countdown in times square and begin 2011 with them
in the eastern time zone,
or do we wait until midnight in the central time zone?


well, we did both...
we had guests visiting from indiana,
and we watched the times square ball drop--toasted each other--and declared
it a new year.


then we changed the tv channel to the mobile, alabama sight
and watched the giant moon pie drop at midnight, central time.
once again we toasted each other and declared a new year.


so, i think i am now in the year 2012!


i've always wanted to live in the future
(that's what i do when i worry about something)...
so, i'm quite happy.



i'm not worrying about 2011--it's already gone for me.


HAPPY NEW YEAR,
AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!
